Not really fancy, but here are some first output results of the RFXCOM receiver receiving devices in my house. All events are written to a MySQL database, and php is used to show the results realtime. The device which only reported 6 times is faulty and needs replacing.

Hello Willem,
Looks good.
Are you using a homemade interface to the rfxcom receiver, or do you use a W800 interface.
What do you mean with realtime.
I am trying to get an automatic 'refreshable' html interface without rebuilding the whole page, only the changed devices, just like the homeseer 1.7 style windowsinterface.
I've tried it with 'xml http' but this is not supported by the homeseer webserver.

i'm using mode 0xf041, i like to get and control all data by myself. Realtime means that what whatever is in the database as the latest status, that is what will be displayed. The webpage refreshes itself every 120 seconds, and it rebuilds that whole page. For now this will do. I haven't looked into other techniques yet. I'm using dreamweaver for the 'design' and add the php code in where i want it.
The collector or 'readrfx' as i call it, is written in C, is currently ~ 600 lines of code, and runs as a deamon under linux.
Willem.

Willem, do you have any documentation on how you managed to get things to work on linux? Since i presume your program is not public? Would be nice to see some more howto pages for HA which are not from 2001/2002

Going thru some old posts. i found snelvuur's question, unfortunately there is no documentaton for this homebrewed software. However it is pretty easy to get a RFXCOM receiver to work under Linux. If there is anything specificly please let me know.

Willem,
This can be a great plugin for Homeseer...
My extra addon wish will then be
click on device and see all the events from the past for the selected device
Enver
